Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Purpose: To compare the precision of the arithmetic mean of surgically induced astigmatism (M-SIA) and the centroid of surgically induced astigmatism (C-SIA) in estimating SIA when predicting the power and axis of toric IOLs under different circumstances. Methods: 120 eyes of 99 patients undergoing toric IOL replacement in a simple cataract surgery were included in the retrospective study. The predicted position of toric IOL was calculated by Z Calc online calculator and Barrett Toric Calculator with M-SIA (0.4D) or C-SIA (0.1D). Position prediction error (PPE, the difference between the predicted position of toric IOL and the ideal position of toric IOL), its absolute value (PPE-Abs) and △PPE (the difference between absolute value of PPE calculated by C-SIA and by M-SIA using the same toric calculator) were used to evaluate the precision in estimate of SIA. Results: Statistical significance in mean PPE and mean PPE-Abs was found in the group M-Barrett. The orientation of corneal astigmatism and eye laterality were influential to mean PPE while gender was not. △PPE was below 0 in both toric calculators. Significant difference in △PPE was seen between groups with different corneal astigmatism when all eyes were OS, as well as between groups with different eye laterality when all eyes were with WTR astigmatism. Conclusions: We did not find a significant difference between M-SIA and C-SIA in estimating the SIA of the patients undergoing small-incision cataract surgery combined with toric IOL implantation. M-SIA was not recommended in Barrett Toric Calculator. The orientation of corneal astigmatism and the incision on the cornea should be considered when choosing between M-SIA and C-SIA. What is known? : Key messages: Either the arithmetic mean of surgically induced astigmatism (M-SIA) or the centroid of surgically induced astigmatism (C-SIA) of a cohort was used to estimate the position of toric IOLs before the surgery. The size and site of corneal incision could influence the orientation and the magnitude of SIA. What is new? : When calculating the axis of toric IOLs with Barrett Toric Calculator, arithmetic mean of SIA (M-SIA) was not recommended for estimate. The orientation of corneal astigmatism could influence the estimate of SIA. We created several novel variables that could be used to indirectly evaluate the stability of toric IOLs and the prognosis of patients.
